A whole mess of tiny Yamaha parts, perhaps as many as 6. I don't have fresh water and if I need to work on the engine while it's running, I need to back down the ramp. Deep water, fast current. But the worst was an oil dipstick right before I was going fishing.
So I pulled the other stick to check the oil and Rube'd up a suitable plug and off we went.
Expensive sunglasses. But an expensive fishing rod and reel combo was the most heinous of my losses.
I love the YouTube videos where someone is screwing around in a small skiff and they lose the outboard off the transom.
My buddy dropped his iPhone off his dock. He went inside and got his scuba gear. He came back and suited up. The phone was only in about 5 feet of water. Just before he went down he said, "text me". He swore that it was lit up when he got to it.
